Yeah Iām pretty much done. Frustrated. But Iāll bet we go to marshall next week and get waxed. How convenient we get to play the games we probably wonāt win and canāt play those we probably would. Frustrating.

Ugh I wasnāt going to be the bearer of bad news this week
Good news is Iāve yet to hear of an incident where an active college football player has been seriously ill, hospitalized, or passed away from the virus.

So CEO of company with potential vaccine that would make him insane amounts claims his solution will end pandemic. Itās almost as if making money is his priority.
Thatās a very fair point. Maybe as some mitigation - heās already a multi billionaire. None of these big pharma guys is at all likeable. Also, I will admit I forget the details, but I thought they were giving this thing away for free?
Was kinda hoping the boast would lift spirits though. We are all so sick of this thing. Just maybe he is right. The biggest challenge will be getting enough people to take the 90% vaccine to bring herd immunity to 75%. If we can do that, this crap should end.

Yup I have no desire to be in the first second or third round of offerings of this thing. Iāll get it at some point but not anywhere near front of the line.
Charlotte has taken the stance that they are going to approach this year with āan abundance of cautionā. If that is your stance coupled with the furloughs, the scheduling of this game made no sense. This was the likely outcome the moment it was scheduled.

Supposedly pharma companies donāt usually make much off vaccines, which is one reason we donāt have more of them. The publicity is likely to help them though.
Maybe true but even not much is likely a lot.
The first few waves of the vaccine will go to healthcare workers, the elderly, and highly vulnerable people after that Iām getting the vaccine. Life will always be a little different after this but Iām ready to get back to as much normalcy as possible. Everything has risks getting a vaccine or not getting a vaccine.

90-95% effective vaccine will not end social distancing requirements per Fauci. Some states will push back against this, NC will not. Iām normally an optimist but at this point think weāll be at extremely limited or no attendance next year. Hope Iām wrong.
Given how uneven and random coopers rules have been Iām inclined to agree.
CNBC: Moderna says preliminary trial data shows its coronavirus vaccine is more than 94% effective, shares soar.
Great news. Better than nothing. I am seeing reports that there are some side effects that are āflu-likeā. Guess thatās better than dying.
